The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



May 10, lOOG. 



BALTIMORE. 



The Market. 



Generally speaking the cut flower mar- 

 ket has been in pretty good shape the past 

 two weeks. The warm, bright days have 

 brought out in quantity all kinds of 

 flowers. A good many more roses are 

 coining in than can be used from day to 

 dav. The tendency of everything last 

 week was for lower prices. There has 

 been little trouble in keeping the whole- 

 sale house clear of carnations. White has 

 been in greatest denumd and some days 

 there is a shortage. With the increase 

 of glass put up in the spring of 1905 

 there are less carnations being cut this 

 spring than last. 



The market is much over-stocked with 

 first-class llarri.sii; in fact, the (piality is 

 much better than could l)e had at Easter. 

 Callas also are over-plentiful. Other 

 bulb stock is pretty well done for. Lilac 

 is in large supply and sells well, the 

 large white variety going best. Smilax 

 and asparagus are in brisk demand, with 

 the supply short. 



Violets are done for. Sweet peas are 

 more plentiful and outside valley can 

 be had in quantity. 



Club Meeting. 



At the last meeting of the Gardeners' 

 Club it was unanimously decided to hold 

 a fall flower show. Four years have 

 passed since we held the last show to 

 which an admission was charged. A 

 guarantee fund of ample proportions was 

 promptly subscribed and a competent 

 committee appointed to push the enter- 

 prise to a successful conclusion. Fred 

 Michell and G. C. Watson, of Philadel- 

 phia, who happened to be present at thid 

 meeting, spoke encouraging words as to 

 the benefit of a show to the trade in 

 general. President William Lehr ap- 

 pointed the following committee: George 

 Morrison, Fred C. Bauer, J. J. Perry, 

 James Glass and Albert G. Fiedler. 



The question box brought out the most 

 interesting discussion of the evening: 

 ' ' Who has the best of it, the retailer or 

 the grower?" After an hour of spirited 

 debate, the general opinion seemed to be 

 in favor of the growers, especially the 

 one making a specialty of what he can 

 grow best. A. F. 



Here is my renewal; I have not had 

 the Review for some time, but I cannot 

 do without it any longer.— F. E. Vetter,

Here is my renewal; don't skip any, 

 I would not lose a single copy for the 

 price of a whole year's subscription. —
